Updating software for iphone 5

I tried updating my phone's software through my computer and it told me that i had purchased items from itunes on my phone that were not transferred to my computer and that i should transfer the files before proceeding. What happens if i don't? Will i lose the files?

The purchased content can still be downloaded to the computer as long as you are signed in to the Apple ID that was used to purchase them.  The reason it is suggesting transferring the purchases is as a convenience so you don't have to download the files again.  They would be on the computer for a faster reloading of necessary.

  • Sorry but I think this wrong, I know that in Colombia there and two of the three operators already have 4G/LTE networks, what happens is that the iPhone should be expected to send the update software for computers that have this tercnologia activate them,

    sorry but I think this wrong, I know that in Colombia there and two of the three operators already have 4G/LTE networks, what happens is that the iPhone should be expected to send the update software for computers that have this tercnologia activate them, that my Iphone or receiving 5 supports 4G LTE,
    Thank you for your attention

    Apple needs to test the carrier if they offer LTE as expected.
    If your country/carrier is not on the list then there's no LTE on your iPhone.

    It's between the your carrier and Apple. There's nothing you can do except feedback to Apple:

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Up grading software for iphone 3G

    When prompted through i tunes that there was an updated software for my iphone I started that process. About two thirds of way way through an error notice appeared saying the up date had an unexpected error. My iphone now only shows a usb cable an an arrow pointing to an itunes icon and nothing else works. Can someone please help? I have an iphone 3G I need to get it back working any ideas?

    I've got the same problem, and my Iphone's got stuck.
    I followed all steps recommended by apple support page (including trying repeat the process in 2 others computers) and nothing.
    Then I went to the store which sold me the Iphone and they gave me a new one.
    For my surprise, when I got home and tried to update (a brand new Iphone) the same problem, and now, I am stuck again.
    The seller told me I am not the first one who had this problem and they are exchanging all Iphones.
    It seems like an outbreak.
    Please, if you find out how to fix it, let me know.

    Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

    App Store says update available for iPhone app. Try to install and get the message "the item you are trying to buy is no longer available" for three apps in a row. Even when I go to the specific app and press Update, the update begins to install then aborts with this error message.iPhone 3GS running iOS 5.1.1. Also very long delay typing each keystroke in this message.

    That error message is usually indicative of a problem with the App Store. If you look through the forums, you'll see that a number of people are experiencing the problem. Try again tomorrow.

    Try pulling down the spill level and reducing the spill tint. You're probably going to have to tweak the color selection manually.
